Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a method and apparatus for extracting unclassified data from a collection of data that includes both classified and unclassified data. This is useful in situations where it is necessary to identify and extract specific types of data without compromising the privacy of other data in the collection. The method involves using a plain text format file with attributes to identify unclassified data, which can then be extracted and stored in a separate environment. This allows for efficient and secure processing of data while maintaining its privacy.

Problems solved by technology

However, performing a manual review of a large amount of data to identify unclassified data in a system, program, database, computer file, or other product that includes both classified and unclassified data may require significant resources and may not be practical.
